ABSTRACT:
Compounds which display a surface similar to the surface presented by one of five distinct lateral domains of CD4 are disclosed. Methods of treating individuals suspected of suffering from or susceptible to conditions characterized by an undesired immune response comprising administering to the individual at least one compound which mimics a portion of the lateral surface of the CD4 glycoprotein are disclosed.
